101217_061052_3699 One For Máire; She Sells Praline Seashells By The Seashore (Fri 17 Dec 10)

Queen Victoria Building, Sydney CBD

Way back in the PAD for the 12th of August I did attempt to get a shot of pralines for Máire. Alas, the shop which had them in the window was closed for renovation at the time and we had to settle for Rocky Road instead. Well, it's long since re-opened and since I was walking through the QVB with camera in hand this morning, and since Christmas is approaching, I thought it was time to take another shot at it.

And here it is.

The sign in the background beyond the depth of field reads:
"Seashells

Soft praline filling covered in milk and white Belgian chocolate.

Special: $6.90 and an hour on a treadmill per 100gram bag."

I may have made part of that last line up, you realise.

OK, now I've caught up posting my PADs. Must try not letting it slip by the better part of a week again. Tomorrow's, I'm expecting to be a little more "back to nature".

Have you shares in a Praline company? These look so tempting.

Now, if I could just afford a Qantas ticket, or even one to Belgium, think of the treats that might await! The lighting makes the chocolatiness even more tempting. Thank you for the virtual treat,Alan.
